Plex is overhauling its apps with a redesign and under-the-hood upgrades

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Hrm, my Plex experience (which made me jellyfin) was that it would reliably shit the bed every few watching sessions, usually just hanging mid video and making me reset the cast. I'll agree the subs are for shit tho, plenty that get rendered below the border, and the app is slow...but once I start playing a show it works so I was content. Maybe worth rechecking Plex.
Interesting, for all its faults I have found Plex to work very reliably for playback.
You can also try emby, it has its own different faults but I've found it better for my above issues than jellyfin. I remember finding something else with it which made me go back to Plex again, but it escapes me what it was.
